Course Description:
This course is designed to introduce students to the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Emphasis is placed
on the organization and relationship between cells, tissues, and organ systems. Several body systems are examined
in detail including their connections to homeostasis.

Subject Eligibility for Prior Learning Assessment & Recognition


(PLAR):
Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) is a process a student can use to gain college credit(s) for
learning and skills acquired through previous life and work experiences. Candidates who successfully meet the
course learning outcomes of a specific course may be granted credit based on the successful assessment of their
prior learning. The type of assessment method (s) used will be determined by subject matter experts. Grades
received for the PLAR challenge will be included in the calculation of a student’s grade point average.

The PLAR application process is outlined in http://www.durhamcollege.ca/plar. Full-time and part-time students must
adhere to all deadline dates. Please email: PLAR@durhamcollege.ca for details.

Notes:

1. GRADE CALCULATIONS
Midterm grades - Midterm grades are calculated using the results of Test 1 (18%), the first 2 lab reports
(2x4%=8%), as well as the best 3 out of 4 in-process evaluations given to date (3x2%=6%).
2. TESTS AND EXAMS
Dates: Students must be prepared to write all tests and the exam at the scheduled time and place. Students
are responsible for accessing this information via DC Connect and MyCampus as it is announced throughout the
term.
Logistics: The tests and the exam are closed book and do not permit the use of crib sheets. Students are
responsible for bringing the appropriate materials (i.e. pens, pencils, erasers, calculators) to these evaluations.
The tests and exam will include a variety of types of questions including multiple choice, definitions, and short
answer questions. Computerized marking sheets (Scantrons) are used and each students must ensure that
their answers are recorded correctly on the Scantron in pencil. Any erasures must be noted to the teacher
during the test time and will not be considered once the test is returned. Marked tests are not returned to
students on a permanent basis, but students are given the opportunity to review them in class.
Late arrivals: Students arriving more than 20 minutes late for a test will not be allowed to write the test.
Students arriving more than 30 minutes late for the exam will not be allowed to write the exam.
Missed tests: There are no individual rewrites or rescheduling of tests missed due to absence. If for any reason
a student is going to be absent for a test or has been absent for a test, the weighting of the exam will be shifted
to reflect the mark on the missed test (i.e. final exam would be worth 48%). This policy applies to one test. A
mark of zero will be assigned to any other missed tests.
Missed exam: Students in this course are eligible for the missed exam policy. The details are available at
http://www.durhamcollege.ca/academicpolicies
(Online students only): Tests and exams for online students are invigilated live online.

Durham College Course Outline - BIOL 1700 - 2017-2018 Page 4 of 18


3. IN-PROCESS EVALUATIONS
Logistics: In-process evaluation marks are derived from online open-book quizzes that are submitted through
DC Connect. 9 quizzes (worth 2% each) are given throughout the semester and the top 7 marks are used to
calculate the final in-process evaluation mark.
Late submissions: All in-process evaluations are to be submitted via DC Connect by 11:59pm on the due date.
Late submissions will not be accepted for evaluation and any that are missed will receive a mark of zero.
Computer malfunctions or technical issues are not accepted as excuses for late or missing course requirements.
It is the student's responsibility to resolve any technical issues prior to the stated evaluation deadline. Visit the
IT Service Desk Portal or call the Service Desk at 905-721- 3333 should technical difficulties arise.
4. LAB
Lab manual: A lab manual is provided to detail the sequence and content of the labs.
Student materials: Students are required to bring a lab coat, safety glasses and the lab manual to every lab.
Students who fail to bring these items to their scheduled lab time will be unable to complete the lab and will
receive a mark of zero for that lab.
Safety training: All students must complete an online safety module before they are permitted entry into the
labs. This module includes a quiz where students are required to achieve a grade of 80% and a survey. Multiple
attempts are permitted. Any special health conditions may also be noted here. Completion of this training
confirms that the student understands and agrees to the safety regulations put forth. Students must bring their
certificate of completion to be signed by their lab instructor to demonstrate completion of this training. Students
who do not complete this requirement will be denied access to the labs and will receive a mark of zero for the
missed lab periods.
Pre-labs: Online pre-lab must be completed by 11:59pm the day before each lab period. Students who do not
comply will receive a mark of zero for the pre-lab portion of the lab report, but will still be allowed to complete
their scheduled lab.
Late submissions: For full marks, all lab reports are due in the DC Connect assignments folder by 11:59pm on
the due date established by your instructor. Late submissions will be penalized 10% per day up to a maximum of
5 days. After that a mark of zero will be assigned. Computer malfunctions or technical issues are not accepted
as excuses for late or missing course requirements. It is the student's responsibility to resolve any technical
issues prior to the stated evaluation deadline. Visit the IT Service Desk Portal or call the Service Desk at 905-
721-3333 should technical difficulties arise.
Late arrivals: For safety reasons, a student that is more than 15 minutes late is not allowed to complete the lab.
No make-up labs can be scheduled.
Lab Attendance: Lab attendance is compulsory and students must be present at the lab in order for a report to
be accepted for grading. Students who miss a lab will receive a mark of zero on all associated lab reports.
Housekeeping: Students must work cooperatively, respectfully, and safely. Backpacks, cell phones,
headphones and earbuds are not permitted in the laboratories. Please inform your laboratory instructor if you are
required to wear medical devices. Should a student not adhere to the lab safety policies and procedures, the lab
instructor will issue a Student Academic Alert for Behavior /Conduct. Penalties will be commensurate with the
nature of the offence.
